As the chief academic officer of the university, he provides support to seven colleges, the College of International and Extended Studies, the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Library, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and the SJSU Research Foundation.
Feinstein supports more than 32,000 students, 1,700 faculty members, and 200 staff members and administrators, while also overseeing 154 degree programs.
At universities, the provost and vice president for Academic Affairs is the chief academic officer and is responsible for promoting a rich intellectual life, fostering student success, creating an active learning environment both in the classroom and beyond, enhancing academic research, scholarship, and creative activity, and increasing the diversity of the institution. The provost is responsible for the implementation of academic priorities and for the allocation of resources to support those priorities.
The provost works closely with academic deans, department heads, student services professionals, faculty and staff to provide the highest possible quality of educational programs.

text: Are they suggesting this is a different person assuming the role of Cobra Commander then? Because obviously "Raza" is not JGL. Then again, they have no earthly reason for him to ever take off the mask anyways, so I guess it really doesn't matter at all now who plays him, does it? (unless they do more flashbacks, but, really, who needs any additional continuity to the first film when we all want to pretend anything that wasn't Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow or Zartan in the first film never happened?) I'm guessing Destro stays in his prison while the Commander escapes. ...or is killed in the escape attempt so that he can regenerate and allow Destro to be played by David Tennant in the 3rd movie.

Both the producers and the studio felt that the character wasn't working. When the character of Seven of Nine was conceived, there was already a sentiment by the studio that there were too many characters on the show as it was (i.e., they needed to trim the budget) and so someone had to go.
totally agree
This implies that they were going to add a character so someone had to go... No, the it worked was, let's get rid of Kes and replace her with a bombshell. That is very different and it was unfortunate.

Silence: Doorway to Contemplation and Interfaith Friendship
I've just had a new article published on the website of Atlanta's Interfaith Community Institute. It's called "Silence: Doorway to Contemplation and Interfaith Friendship." In Psalm 46, God is quoted as saying, "Be still and know that I am God." God, the Ultimate Mystery, is greater than human language, thought, or ideas. For this reason, language always seems to conceal God as much as it reveals God.While not, therefore, replacing the heritage of theological and mystical language that tes … [Read more...]

Prompted by the neighborhood, city officials recently sent a Houston developer a violation letter — the strictest enforcement of the historic ordinance to date — over damage to a 104-year-old house in the Germantown Historic District.
We detailed the latest in this ongoing dispute between Woodlands Heights residents and developer Terry Fisher in a story in our print edition and on HoustonChronicle.com. Fisher Homes bought the property in March 2013 and planned to build a two-story addition.
The photos in the gallery above were taken recently by a city inspector and prompted the violation letter from the city's Planning and Development Department. Follow this link to the Houston Assosciation of Realtors listing for photos of the home, built in 1910, when it was for sale. The home was listed between $285,000 to $325,000.
Fisher has submitted a proposal for renovations to the property to the city. The Historical Commission could take up the issue at its June 19 meeting.

... There are also no motor boats allowed on Lake Bled. The way to get over there is on a boat and a guy stands on the end of it a paddles you over. Not only that, there is special training involved and you have to be a fully certified boat paddler in order to do this (much like to gondoliers in Venice) It was beautiful. It was an overcast day and the lake was dead calm. The only sound was the burble of the paddles through the water and some bird calls. There were ...

At first I was hesitant to make such a lavish purchase, but when my hair accessories arrived I was amazed by the speed of delivery (it took less than 24 hours from ordering to arriving on my doorstep).
The customer service is outstanding. I described my hair type and made a purchase, however Stonebridge contacted me immediately via the telephone to tell me that they thought my choosen item would not fit in my hair. With thier help I made another choice and I am delighted with my items.
Now it feels like Fairies are holding my hair in place and I have a product that no one else has.
I am just utterly delighted with this company and the service they provide. The products are devine.

Colasoft MAC Scanner
editor's review
Just like you may be tempted to believe by reading its name, Colasoft MAC Scanner is an application developed to scan IP addresses in a network and retrieve information on MAC addresses.
While rookies usually stay away from this kind of tools, Colasoft MAC Scanner should cause absolutely no problem to them, as it relies on very user-friendly features.
In fact, it's not necessarily the user-friendly approach the secret weapon that makes the program so straightforward, but also the limited number of features with no configuration options.
The main window is indeed intuitive and prompt the user to input the local subnet, which is actually the IP range to be scanned. Once the process begins, Colasoft MAC Scanner displays information such as IP, MAC address, hostname and manufacturer, all presented in the same window.
What's more, you can always export the results to TXT or CSV formats, while at the same time you're allowed to select one or more results and copy them to clipboard.
A settings menu is also available, but there's nothing too complicated because the only option available there lets you configure the scan threats number.
Colasoft MAC Scanner usually completes the scanning process in a few seconds, but this also depends on your settings. It remains light on hardware resources and works smoothly on all Windows versions.
All things considered, Colasoft MAC Scanner is a handy piece of software that could attract those looking for an app with no configuration options. Advanced users on the other hand could be disappointed, mostly due to this very simple approach.

Historical artifacts "relocate" to oligarchs' country cottages
Constructions in the modern Yerevan are covering the historical layers of the old Yerevan.
Two ancient millstones used for oil production disappeared immediately after they were found in a construction site in Yerevan.
May 17, 2011
PanARMENIAN.Net - Two ancient millstones used for oil production were discovered at the depth of 2 meters in Pavstos Byuzand street of Yerevan, behind the Museum of History, in 2009.
Head of the archeology and ethnography department at Armenian National Academy of Sciences, Suren Obosyan, who examined the millstones said that upon discovery, he contacted the Museum of History for their further transportation to the Museum.
"However, the millstones disappeared and by unknown reasons were not transported to the Museum," Obosyan said.
The archeologist asserts that he requested a company engaged on preservation of ancient monuments but no one arrived at the site, alleging shortage of time.
Obosyan is convinced that the artifacts were taken to a country cottage of one of Armenian oligarchs, however, he can't provide any name.
According to written sources, about 60 mills and several oil production presses operated in Yerevan in the Middle Ages. Archives show that in 1930s similar millstones were found in Koryun street. However, the data was unverified and the findings lost.
Two types of millstones were used in the Armenian Plateau, their appearance remaining unchanged in the period of 10-20th centuries. In mountainous regions, they were used for production of linseed oil. In the lowland, ones for production of sesame oil were used. It's remarkable that the millstones found in Yerevan were meant for production of linseed oil, but it's known that flax-plants neither grew nor was processed in Yerevan.
Ordinary millstones were 20 meters long and 15 meters wide. One of the millstones discovered in Yerevan was 1.76 meter in diameter.
At the first sight, the story seems incredible. However, there are many stories of the kind. Medieval Yerevan was located in the territory of the modern downtown, where the number of artifacts discovered is not large. The public and specialists are often unaware of the findings and the relative institutions are not informed either.
Thus, constructions in the modern Yerevan are covering the historical layers of the old Yerevan. The cultural and historical heritage in the vicinity of Saint Katoghike or Holy Mother of God Church suffered the same fate: excavations were not carried out and the most of the territory was cemented. In 2009, a jug was found in Yeznik Koghbatsi street. Specialists decided that it has no historical value and continued works, leaving the finding where it was.
The case with the millstones is unique, as it was registered thanks to some honest residents of the Armenian capital and a superficial research was carried out. Unfortunately, people often remain indifferent about the findings. So do the governmental institutions which are obliged to preserve the artifacts. The fact is that the center of Yerevan is little examined and its future examination is undecided.
